Nevel develops and operates energy and resource efficiency solutions that support the transition towards a low-carbon society. Our climate roadmap guides the transformation of our operations through fossil fuel phase-out, renewable energy solutions, material efficiency innovations and continuous improvements in environmental performance.
Our transition pathway is built on expanding the use of renewable fuels, recovered heat, industrial side streams and electrification, while continuously improving the efficiency and environmental performance of our biogas and material efficiency operations.
Our climate targets:2030: Fossil Scope 1 emissions reduced to zero in our Real Estate solutions business 2035: Fossil Scope 1 emissions reduced to zero in our Industry business 2035: Scope 1 greenhouse gas emissions from biogas and composting operations reduced through continuous process optimisation and emissions management

These targets support our long-term transition away from fossil fuels while addressing greenhouse gas emissions across our different business operations.
Nevel is committed to eliminating fossil Scope 1 CO2e emissions from its energy production through a phased transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources, recovered heat and electrification.
Our roadmap sets clear milestones towards decarbonised energy production and reduced greenhouse gas emissions across our operations. While fossil fuels are being phased out from energy production, we are also continuously improving the performance of our biogas and composting operations to reduce associated greenhouse gas emissions.
Fossil Scope 1 emissions are direct emissions from fossil fuels used in Nevel’s operations, reported as carbon dioxide equivalents (CO₂e).
Emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and other greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change.
Nevel heating plants providing district heating to over 5000 customers in more than 40 district heating networks.
Energy contracting business serving near to 100 industrial customers with decentralized energy and material efficiency solutions.
Biogas production delivering biomethane to 50 industrial customers, the national grid and gas-powered transportation.
Achieving our climate targets requires a credible and actionable transition plan supported by measurable milestones and transparent reporting.
Nevel’s climate roadmap is being reviewed by an independent external party. The verification report will be published on this page once completed.
We have committed to set emission reduction targets aligned with Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) criteria and are working on submitting our targets for validation based on these criteria. By joining the SBTi, Nevel is ensuring its climate actions are aligned with the latest science. SBTi will provide Nevel with a new framework for following up our climate commitments at group level.
Nevel has committed to set science-based greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets aligned with the criteria of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and is preparing these targets for validation.
The SBTi framework provides a science-based approach for setting and monitoring emissions reduction targets that are aligned with climate science and global climate goals.
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a corporate climate action organization that enables companies and financial institutions worldwide to play their part in combating the climate crisis.
The SBTi develops standards, tools and guidance which allow companies to set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reductions targets in line with what is needed to keep global heating below catastrophic levels and reach net-zero by 2050 at latest.
